David Leveaux (born 13 December 1957) is a UK theatre director who has been nominated for five Tony Awards as director of both plays and musicals. He directs both in the UK, working at the Royal Shakespeare Company, the Almeida Theatre, and the Donmar Warehouse, and on Broadway, and also in Tokyo. Born in Leicester, he read English language and literature at Manchester University. In his early 20s, Leveaux became assistant to Peter Gill at Riverside Studios. When the Studios became bankrupt he was one of a group who occupied the building illegally to keep it running until it was reestablished legitimately. While taking a break in New York City, he discovered Eugene O`Neill`s play, A Moon for the Misbegotten, and revived it at Riverside, starring Frances de la Tour and Ian Bannen. The production transferred to the West End and Broadway (1984).
Subsequently he directed Therese Raquin at Chichester, Anna Christie in London and on Broadway, and Romeo and Juliet for the Royal Shakespeare Company. At the Almeida Theatre he directed Harold Pinter`s No Man`s Land, Moonlight, Betrayal and Neil LaBute`s The Distance From Here (2002). He was Artistic Director of Theatre Project Tokyo, directing productions in Tokyo, including Electra (1995), Lulu (1999), Modern Noh Plays, The Changeling, Hedda Gabler, and Two Headed Eagle. He was associate director of the Donmar Warehouse, under Sam Mendes` artistic directorship. His revival of the musical Nine at Donmar in 1996 transferred to Broadway in 2003 with Antonio Banderas, where he received a nomination for the Tony Award, Best Direction of a Musical and the musical itself won the Tony Award as Best Revival of a Musical. He directed Electra (1997), for which Zoë Wanamaker received an Olivier Award. He received the Olivier Award nomination for Best Director for his 1999 revival of Tom Stoppard`s The Real Thing. In 2003 he revived Tom Stoppard`s Jumpers for the Royal National Theatre in London. This then toured the UK regions before eventually transferring to Broadway in 2004. He recently directed Cyrano de Bergerac (2007) on Broadway, starring Kevin Kline, with Ben Brantley.
